E-Flite Draco 2.0m STOL RC Plane, BNF Basic

A bush plane like no other

The full-size DRACO began life as a Wilga 2000. After Mike Patey’s hard work and determination were finished with it the DRACO was born and quickly established itself as the ultimate bush plane. A new turboprop engine and many more modifications saw the DRACO able to go to the same places as the Carbon Cub but could reach 28,000 feet altitudes, climb twice as fast and reach cruising speeds of 289km/h with 4 passengers plus gear. The FAA approved the redesign done by Mike Patey as an ‘experimental exhibition aircraft’. When you see the highly engineered and visually stunning DRACO 2.0m from E-flite you’ll understand why!

As the only officially licensed scale replica E-flite knew it had to give the Extra Scale DRACO 2.0m RC bush plane the scale detailing and engineering it deserved. They have delivered. Externally the factory-applied finish on the lightweight, fully moulded durable EPO airframe is eye-catching. The Extra Scale features adding to this superb appearance include antennas, wingtip ‘stinger’ skids, steps, and much more. The detailed cockpit with a backlit instrument panel and a pilot figure can be easily seen through the clear windows and windshield. The functional Extra Scale details on the E-flite DRACO 2.0m RC bush plane include leading-edge slats, slotted flaps, scale-like licensed KING shocks on the tail wheel, and main gear plus more.

With 17 LEDs on the airframe and a custom LED controller, you can select strobing, solid, or a combination of light patterns from your compatible transmitter. The carbon fibre custom-made main gear is fitted with oversized tundra-style tyres that you give ample prop clearance and absorb the harsh bumps. The steerable shock-absorbing tailwheel also provides excellent ground handling with the option of backward taxiing with an optional-use motor reversing feature available with a compatible 7+ channel transmitter and SMART receiver.<

The E-flite DRACO 2.0m RC Bush Plane delivers precision control from the 6 metal geared, factory-installed servos with ball-link equipped internal linkages. The large 4-blade propeller on the DRACO is driven by a high-powered brushless outrunner motor that can run 4000 to 7000mAh LiPo batteries depending on whether you want to fly smooth and slow or speed into vertical aerobatics. The E-flite DRACO 2.0m RC Bush Plane also comes equipped with a Spektrum Avian 100mAh SMART ESC with the BNF version also including a SMART AR637TA receiver that will give you full range telemetry that includes real-time current, motor RPM, ESC temperature, battery voltage plus more if you have a compatible AirWare equipped transmitter.

Easy no-tool assembly/disassembly is achieved with a two-piece wing that is secured with thumbscrews requiring only a quarter turn. In the BNF version of the E-flite DRACO 2.0m RC Bush Plane you get the optional-use SAFE Select and AS3X technology that will work behind the scenes to smooth out your flight characteristics and also provide flight envelope protection with set parameters. If you go with the Plug-N-Play (PNP) option you can equip your DRACO with the battery, receiver, charger and transmitter of your choice. Either option is going to give you a brilliant scale STOL flying experience like no other RC plane before it!
